Vanity: How to tell if PS image is composite?

[dkazz]

How do you tell that a photoshop image is a composite?

Does it come from a Muslim group?

Faked, compromised, lying, and sleazy.

Next question.

It can be tough if it’s done right.

Different size pixels would be a clue!

E.G!

Another giveaway is that some things appear as solid colors and other similar items do not.

Aside from basic post processing of photos, most photoshopped photos are composites.

Specifically this image:

I don't have full blown photoshop. I did run this through pskiller and it said color was manipulated but I don't get any information about composition.

[TexasRepublic]

I have suspected as much!

[SWAMPSNIPER]

The image is too small, not enough data to look at.

Photoshop isn’t really the best post processing software there is these days.

,,,, you might want to ask the Geo. Soros funded Sites SNOPES and FACT CHECK they’re always good at fakes .

Here's the camera info.



Funny thing is that it was released by a Lt. named William Clinton.

Looks to me like the only thing done with photoshop was basic adjustments.

Can you tell which software is better than photoshop? I do a lot of restoration work with photography and while phoroshop is great would love to know of one better. Maybe one a bit easier to use.

[cripplecreek]

I really wouldn’t know. I mostly use Adobe bridge which comes with Photoshop CS3. You can do the processing just fine with the options that photoshop provides but some of the other programs just streamline your post processing.

Lightroom seems to be most popular.

Lightroom is nowhere near photoshop.

I spend hours every day with PS.

Lightroom is usually used as a DAM program and it’s enhancement stuff is stripped from Adobe Raw. But if you want to make production quality work, PS is the standard.

[cripplecreek]

I only shoot in RAW myself and actually prefer photoshop (bridge).

I’ve been playing around with Picturnaut for HDR photos. Its pretty minimal but its fine if you like the low key HDH stuff without all the tone mapping.
